Got it. I opened a new page, went into Page Layout, selected Different
First Page, and then set the margins of the header and footer the same
as the original.

When I went to the second page, there was no header or footer. The
trick was, indeed, to do the page layout before anything else.

The graphic was an .eps file. I attached the .doc file; happy to accept
suggestions...

Try control-A while in the header, as long as your graphic is in-line and
not set behind the text. But the graphic may be in the drawing layer--in
which case try double-clicking it and copying it separately. This will make
more sense after you've had a chance to read at least the first article I
recommended.

How did you insert the graphic?

What I am finding frustrating is not being able to copy the settings for
the header, only the text. Is there a way to copy the header
completely, including text, images, and formatting?

Thanks

I can't see the replies you already got--did you change the subject line? So
if this is a repeat, sorry.

Turn on First Page Headers (File | Page Setup, Layout tab). View
Headers/Footers. If the First Page header is now blank, copy the regular
header into it. If necessary, delete the text in the regular header.

You copy between documents exactly the same way as within a doc--just view
headers/footers and copy into the appropriate location--but you don't need
to in this case.





Intuitively I can see in Word that the Page Setup should place a
command in front of the header and footer commands, but there is no way
that I can literally see where that command is placed.




What you say about "Intuitively...." in fact, I think that is exactly *not*
how Word works. It works very differently from WordPerfect, and I think a
lot of your confusion is caused by thinking it's the same. See these:

Thanks to you both for your responses. Here is the problem that I do
not seem to be able to solve readily without reconstructing my header:
I already have created the header and footer and would now like to
change the second and all additional pages.

I am used to using WordPerfect, where I can go in and see where the
commands are and correct them easily, if they are not in the correct
spot. Intuitively I can see in Word that the Page Setup should place a
command in front of the header and footer commands, but there is no way
that I can literally see where that command is placed.

Is there a way of placing the "First Page Only" formatting command into
a page that is already created or will I have to copy the header and
footer to a new page? If the latter, how would I copy a complete header
and footer onto another document?

Thanks

Word 2000

I have set up logo stationary with the logo and names of a group in a
header and the address in the footer of a page. I would like to add
additional pages to the letter without having the header and footer
print. Do these have to be erased manually on each subsequent page or
is there a way to only have the header and footer print on the first
page?

Thanks
